Yes. It's a Chiweenie.
Do you know this dog breed? It's a chihuahua and dachshund mix. This is a portrait that I painted of Ivy, my neighbor's new puppy. Ivy is the sweetest little puppy EVER! She always comes running over to say hello with a happy little smile on her face. Once, she was running so fast that her little legs couldn't keep up with her and she did a full-on summersault! So CUTE!
Anyway, I digress... Ivy belongs to my neighbor's ten-year-old daughter and they got her when she was just a few weeks old, just barely old enough to be away from her mother. She was so tiny! My neighbor took a photo of Ivy sitting in a shoe right after they got her and she asked me to paint it for her daughter for Christmas. We both decided that the black shoe just wasn't cute enough, so I changed up the colors (just a little bit! <wink> blue, pink and purple - YES!)

This portrait is painted on an 8x10 canvas painted with acrylic paints. Ivy has grown up a bit now, but she is still the sweetest little puppy ever!
And my neighbor's daughter was so excited with this gift that was custom-painted just for her...
Please contact me about commissioning a custom painted pet portrait just for you (or as a gift for your favorite animal lover). In addition to canvas, I also paint customized Christmas ornaments, photo frames, etc.
